ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00778-004-0121-9 | Abstract: | In this paper, we propose a new tunable index scheme, called iMinMax(θ), that maps points in high-dimensional spaces to single-dimensional values determined by their maximum or minimum values among all dimensions. By varying the tuning "knob", θ, we can obtain different families of iMinMax structures that are optimized for different distributions of data sets. The transformed data can then be indexed using existing single-dimensional indexing structures such as the B +-trees. Queries in the high-dimensional space have to be transformed into queries in the single-dimensional space and evaluated there. We present efficient algorithms for evaluating window queries as range queries on the single-dimensional space. We conducted an extensive performance study to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed schemes. Our results show that iMinMax(θ) outperforms existing techniques, including the Pyramid scheme and VA-file, by a wide margin. We then describe how iMinMax could be used in approximate K-nearest neighbor (KNN) search, and we present a comparative study against the recently proposed iDistance, a specialized KNN indexing method. | Source Title: | VLDB Journal | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/39536 | ISSN: | 10668888 | DOI: | 10.1007/s00778-004-0121-9 |
